Portuguese tourism to Brazil slowing down

Eastern Europe, the Caribbean, India and South Africa... new destinations with all-in hotels and cheaper prices are competing with Brazil - whose strong real makes trips to Brazil a lot more expensive than 2, 3 years ago.

Operators like Club 1840, Iberojet, Terra Brasil, Mundovip and Travelplan, who make for the bulk of charters to Brazil and the Caribbean, are reducing their number of flights, faced with low demand. Flights can be found for as little as 400 Euros.

In 2006, Portuguese tourism in Brazil ended with roughly the same number as 2005 - around 540000 pax. Salvador, with 162.212 pax, showed a growth of 4.5%; Natal rose by 7.9% to 115000 pax; while Fortaleza stagnated at 123000 pax - and Recife lost more than 9%, now at 137575 pax.

Maybe Portuguese tourism in Brazil is slowing down, but if to look in general, Brazil tourism from countries all around the world is going up. I think Brazil is the best place to travel. Brazil is more than beaches and Carnival, but that would be enough reason to travel there. Brazil is the largest country in South America. The nation's natural beauty is reflected in its variety of geographic locations, from Sugar Loaf Mountain in the city of Rio de Janeiro, to the magnificent Iguazu Falls in the south, to the Amazon basin in the North, there's something for almost every taste... snow skiers excepted. Brazil is a highly sought after destination when it comes to holidays but recent developments have helped the country to attract property investors. Although it is difficult to get bored of a vast country such as Brazil property investment is becoming a real possibility.
